The great thing is to become Saints.

Let the sick man enter into the Side of Jesus and His most holy Wounds; let him not be afraid, but combat manfully, and he will come forth victorious.

He who feels that the vice of avarice has got hold of him, should not wish to observe fasts of supererogation, but to give alms.

Cast yourself into the arms of God and be very sure that if he wants anything of you, He will fit you for the work and give you strength.

As soon as we are stripped of the sordid garb of avarice, we shall be clothed with the royal and imperial vest of the opposite virtue, liberality.

We must sometimes bear with little defects in others, as we have, against our will, to bear with natural defects in ourselves. If we wish to keep peace with our neighbor, we should never remind anyone of his natural defects.

At communion we ought to ask for the remedy of the vice to which we feel ourselves most inclined.
